Recent Reviews

Me and my volleyball team had a great time at this place. The location is on the top of a hill in the forest. Everybody was so excited when they saw the bar, sauna and the cinema. Also the kitchen is just ideal. The lack of internet and good cellphone reception gave us some problems when contacting the house owner to collect the keys. Luckily a neighbour was very helpful.

Excellent value for money - the accommodation exceeded expectations, and the hosts were delightful. We didn't need to travel far to find amazing places to visit (castles, little towns in the Eifel or by the Mosel) and there are lots of walks in lovely countryside. We felt we'd had a really relaxing time.
